chicago

Whew, what a week. I left Austin at 6am Wed headed to a tradeshow in Chicago. I had never been there and loved the city. The weather was thankfully wonderful, in the 50's and not too much wind, it could have been much worse. I didn't get to do a lot of sight seeing, but I snapped a couple of pics...

Lake Michigan, see the white part in the middle, that's the ice that has yet to melt...and people were running in shorts!






Wrigley









Falling ICE?!











The historic Water Tower downtown (main claim to fame is that it is one of only a very few structures that remained standing after the great Chicago Fire in 1871 and today is a monument to that event).











The tradeshow I was working was "The Work Truck Show" and I found a new car to take home, ha.
